Our client, a young woman, was T-boned by a driver attempting to turn into a gas station. The impact caused her vehicle to spin and crash into a pole. While her initial injuries were treated, it became clear over the following weeks that she was suffering from persistent post-concussion syndrome symptoms.
After the at-fault driver’s insurance paid its policy limits, we pursued additional compensation through her parents’ substantial underinsured motorist policy. To support her claim, we obtained expert opinions from neurologists, medical reports, and a comprehensive life care plan outlining her ongoing needs. Facing strong evidence and the impending statute of limitations, the underinsured motorist carrier ultimately paid its full policy limits just before the deadline.
